Camber?

[1D4LV]

ano usually ang mga telltale signs na kailangan mo ng magpa camber? medyo hindi na kasi normal nararamdaman ko sa oto ko eh. parang medyo magulo na yung manibela in high-speeds, tapos ang lakas na ng huni ng gulong sa harapan, although i know one of the factors here is yung NCT3 na tires ko. yung tire wear naman is still even.

1. Kung may nararamdaman kang kabig ng manibela.
2. Kung di na pantay ang upod ng goma.
3. Kung nararamdaman mong nauuna ng bahaygya ang kabilang gulo.
4. Kung napapadalas ka sa malalim na lubak, kelangan check ito taon-taon.

Guys what if i just had my alignment and camber late last year. Pati paglipat ng goma. Then lately sa NLEX magalwa uli manibela and may kabig sa kanan. Alignment and camber uli kaya?

Anually naman dapat ang check ng front end alignment. Nagtitipid na lang kasi tayo kaya kung kailan may maramdaman tsaka lang pasisilip kung anong diperensya. And to add, one year of tire usage should create enough tread wear for you to rotate them.

Normal naman na kumabig ang sasakyan sa kanan lalo na may kalumaan na ang sasakyan. All our roads are made to slant on the right for water spillways. Subukan nyo po sa gitna ng two way concrete road para pantay at tignan kung may kabig pa rin.

mga sir... medyo related yata yung problema ng crv ko... kapag nagha-half brake ako, medyo nanginginig yung steering wheel ko. But kung full breaking naman hindi naman nanginginig.

Thanks sir! I'll try that. But what if kumakabig pa din then i'll go have it checked na siguro. Hirap kasi sa NLEX konting bitaw kabig agad.

Tikoyman::: I belive you are experiencing brake shudder. Uneven wear on brake pads at rear drums will be my primary doubt. Subukan nyo po munang lihain para pumantay ang itaas at ibabang part ng pads. Nangyayari ito kadalasan sa mga rear drums na may emergency park brakes. Upper part lang ang gumagana at sumasayad sa drums kaya hindi pantay ang upod. Isabay nyo na rin ang pag linis ng front disc pads, hangin at liha lang ang katapat para pantayin ulit. May mga alikabok, buhagin at iba pang duming sumisingit kaya hindi pantay ang upod.

zanch::: Subukan nyo po muna ng tire rotation. Either 5 wheel or 4 wheel tire roation might do the trick. Less than 1thou lang naman ang alignment so it won't hurt much on your pocket too.

got it sir. Thanks!;)

kung magalaw manibela at high-speed.. usually eh kelangan lang ng wheel balancing.. on our car, every 6 month ako pa wheel balance..

Before you go for wheel alignment be sure that you check your suspension for worn out parts like ball joints (upper/lower), control arm bushings, tie rod ends and rack and pinion ball ends.

Bale wala ang alignment mo kung defective ang isa dito. These are the ones that are causing the problems that you are experiencing.

Sa mga DIYers, you have to have a croc jack to check the suspension.

1. Have the croc jack positioned sa ilalim ng lower ball joint to load it, and lift the wheel 2 inches from ground.

2. Try mo iuga ang wheel holding it first at top and bottom and have somebody look if the suspension parts are damaged. In this case machecheck mo lower ball joint at mararamdaman mo rin kung loose ang wheel bearings mo.

3. Next iuga mo with your hands on left and right side. This is done when the wheel is completely turned all the way to the left and again all the way to the right. Same thing with both wheels. With this step you can check the tie rod, rack ends, any steering link jitters, and control arm bushings.

4. Pag nakababa naman ang wheel sa ground, bounce mo ang shock on each side dapat huminto ang bounce or try to sa 2 bounce. Also, sa mga may mcpherson struts, open the plastic cover for the bearing (on top) and feel the bearing/bolt when bouncing the wheeels. Dapat walang uga pag meron sira ang strut mounting bearings or maluwag.

Kung wala kang nakita, then pwede ka na magpa align.


Pero kung real DIYer ka then pwede mo din DIY.......
